A rare look into the process of setting up an exhibition, something thats usually not done until a few hours before opening up to the public. The most spoken about exhibits of the Dutch Design Week were the design academy, Dutch invertuals and Atelierdorp. The question is, does subsidizing from the city council’s ‘culture’ budget promote mediocre work (the ones not mentioned in the list)?
text from the collective:
Atelierdorp is an unconventional and almost incidental collective of designers who feel united by design. For the second year in a row, the young designers present a group exhibition of their personal work. As they have moved their studios to a new location in the centre of Eindhoven, they invite you to have a closer look at their work and the place where it has been created. Atelierdorp opens its doors.
In their new headquarters, Atelierdorp shows how different styles can co-exist without conflict, how multiple identities grow and how a community proves its importance in a world ruled by the individual.
